Honesty, Integrity and Common Sense for Henderson County
Your County Attorney Since 2009
County Attorneys' Office
The County Attorneys Office is one of the busiest offices in county government. The office's primary responsibilities include the prosecution of roughly 2000 misdemeanor cases each year, juvenile crimes, both felonies and misdemeanors, we represent the Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS or more commonly known as CPS) in child protection cases, we are the only prosecuting attorneys that practice in all 11 courts of the County, the County Court, County Court at Law No. 1 and No. 2, District Courts, 3rd, 173rd, and 392nd, and all five Justice of the Peace Courts in the county.
In addition to our criminal and CPS prosecution, we represent the State of Texas in mental commitment hearings, and we represent Adult Protective Services in adult guardianship cases. We routinely and regularly provide advice and counsel to all other elected officials and department heads on matters that range from reviewing, drafting and negotiating contracts, the collection of money owed to the county, easement, right of way or other real estate related matters, human resource matters and policy and procedure matters, just to name a few. The office receives, processes and handles hundreds of public information act requests each year on behalf of various departments.
The office operates on a budget of roughly 1.7 million dollars a year, the overwhelming majority of that being office salaries and benefits. The office is comprised of 16 full time employees and 1 part-time employee. Six of those are licensed attorneys, and one is our investigator and a licensed peace officer. I am blessed to have some of the best employees in Henderson County and they truly do an amazing job representing me and the office and serving our county.
Other individual assignments that I am involved in include me serving on the county insurance committee, the county IT committee, the East Texas Council of Governments Criminal Justice Advisory Board, I have served as the Chairman of the Juvenile Board for the past six years, I am the county Public Information Officer in the event of an emergency or disaster, and I attend the County Commissioners' Court regularly.
